1089 Mt Pleasant Rd is a semi-detached century home in the Sherwood park neighborhood with a few meaningful updates already in place and significant upside for the right buyer.This is not a fully transformed home. It is a character property with solid bones, some updated features, and clear room to improve over time. Upgrades include the massive sunroom, main bathroom, gas insert fireplace, and roof (2020) giving the next owner a comfortable starting point while leaving plenty of opportunity to add value.The main floor offers a combined living and dining space, a functional kitchen with pass-through to the sunroom, and a layout that works well today while inviting a larger future plan. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated 3-piece bath.The full, partially finished basement includes den, workshop, and storage space, with potential for a more substantial reworking for buyers thinking long term. For those with vision and an income strategy in mind, the property may offer the chance to create additional utility and revenue, including basement redevelopment possibilities and, subject to approvals, a future garden suite.Outside, the property includes a shared driveway with one dedicated parking space, plus the possibility of creating a second off-street parking space by removing the existing shed. That flexibility is a real advantage for buyers looking to maximize the site over time.The property has also been pre-consulted for ADU (aka garden suite) eligibility through Property Pathways, offering another layer of future potential for buyers focused on long-term use and value creation.Set steps from Sherwood Park and within walking distance to Mt. Pleasant Village shops, cafés, Northern Secondary School, and John Fisher primary school, this is a property for someone who understands location, sees the upside, and is prepared to unlock it.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Premium Pricing
At $1643/sqft, this property is priced above the Leaside average of $950/sqft. I'd want to see upgraded finishes, premium location, or recent renovations to justify this price point. During our showing, I'll point out exactly what you're paying extra for.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 57 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Leaside. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Detached Home Advantages
Detached homes in Leaside are increasingly scarce and valuable. You'll have no shared walls, full control over renovations, and typically stronger appreciation. Consider the lot size and potential for future additions or basement apartment income. Detached homes also offer the most flexibility for growing families.
Efficient Living
At 700 sqft, this is a more compact space. The upside: lower utility bills, less maintenance, and easier cleaning. Consider how you'll use the space - built-in storage, multi-functional furniture, and good organization become important. Great for singles, couples, or those who prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle.
Starter Home Potential
3 bedrooms works well for couples planning families or small families with one child. Consider whether you might outgrow the space in 5-7 years. If so, factor in potential moving costs when making your decision. Alternatively, some buyers convert a bedroom to an office and make it work long-term.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Leaside properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $4,792 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
